Heikin Ashi For ThinkOrSwim

I want to play around with pairs trading and using Heikin Ashi on a lower chart with a second symbol. Turns out Heikin Ashi code doesn't seem to work with code not in the upper chart. There seems to be problems with the simple arrays being created. Anybody have some ideas or is this a limitation of thinkscript?

Hi, I understand the need to use heikin ashi candles for the averages and to smooth out the chart. but, is there a way to run normal candlestick bars like a shadow/overlay? I like to watch the exact price point. (Yes I know I can watch the bid/ask, but i like to watch the candle forming). Thanks
 
@Drgrcrpilot You can use this code below to display Heikin Ashi as a lower study:

Can’t believe no one has done this but can someone create the “heikin ashi” indicator into the candles? I’m trying to see if it does a better job than the TTM trend. Or if theirs a code out their can someone link it?
 
What do you mean create the heikin ashi indicator into the candles? Are you trying to display heikin ashi candlesticks on your chart? Or do you want to overlay heikin ashi candles on top of the default candles?

I’m just looking for the indicator. The coding for it. I’ve looked everywhere. I just want it displayed on my chart, not overlap current candles

Does anyone know of a way to combine Heikin Ashi and Japanese candlesticks together in one chart? I'd like a way to see the true price of the bar, which usually isn't shown with HA.
 
Here is a stupid version to test performance. I didn't spend more than a few minutes on this and I am not familiar with how to use it. Excuse the poor coding and interpretation if I am wrong. You need to add it as a strategy.

Hello,
I am new here.
Can Someone help build a script to display Heikin Ashi chart as Regular (OHLC) bars? (meaning to use OHLC of Heinkin Ashi bars and dispaly it in regular bars, not candles)?
 
Hello,
I found what I was looking for in this post. Some of the questions here was asking for displaying Heinkin Ashi candle on the same chart of the standard candle. I didn't see any code posted, so here it is:

#Draw the Heinkin Ashi candle
def HAhigh;
def HAlow;
def HAclose;
rec HAopen = CompoundValue(1, (HAopen[1] + HAclose[1]) / 2, (open[1] + close[1]) / 2);
HAclose = (open + high + low + close) / 4;
HAhigh = Max(Max(high, HAopen), HAclose[1]);
HAlow = Min(Min(low, HAopen), HAclose[1]);
def HA_open = round(HAopen, 2);
def diff = HAclose - HAopen;

AddChart(HAhigh, HAlow, HA_open, HAclose, type = ChartType.candle, growcolor = color.light_orange);


#Edit the plot for these as boolean type and use up/down arrow to show on your chart if you want to add Heinkin Ashi Signal for trend changing
plot HA_Down = if diff > 0 and diff[1] <= 0 then 1 else 0;
plot HA_Up = if diff < 0 and diff[1] >= 0 then 1 else 0;

I was on tradingview and really have been testing this SSS indicator, going to copy paste the code below. I am **** at coding but this was very close to what you posted.
I was not able to use your code above in TOS not sure why or if i need to change some chart settings etc.....

this is great anyway to assign the candle sticks different colors??
 
Here ya go:

At the bottom of the study. Change this:
AssignPricecolor(if haclose > haopen
then Color.Green
else Color.Red);
Click to expand...
To this:
DefineGlobalColor("Green", color.green) ;
DefineGlobalColor("Red", color.red) ;
AssignPricecolor(if haclose > haopen
then GlobalColor("Green")
else GlobalColor("Red"));
Click to expand...

Creating Global Colors, will allow you to modify the colors to anything you want.
After changing the code:
1. go to the Studies Setup
2. scroll down and click on Global Colors
3. click on the color, then more, then RGB
4. change the color to your preference
5. when saving, make sure to click on Save as Default at the top of Chart Settings. This will save your preferences and apply them to all future charts.
